Nice, crisp shot - the frisbee being a bit high and blurred, it seems almost less the subject than the trees or pole that are so crisp and take up so much of the frame. I wonder if timing the shot differently, when it was lower, or changing the angle to look more up at it, might have made the frisbee more prominent in the picture.

Quite a toss of the frisbee, and a cute shot.

I think this photo has a lot of potential to be much better. I don't know if you knew the guys throwing the frisbee but I would moved them away from the pole. Also why didn't you frame this vertically? You have too much sky and pole for me. If you can't change the location ok, but frame this vertically tilt the camera down and show more of the receiver. Good luck in the challenge.

Photographically this does nothing for me.

Ah that post is distracting! Maybe a different shooting position might have been better. This would have been great with just frisbee, sky, boy and trees.

Is this a self portrait? I don't know much but I think it would have been better if it was shot in an area that didn't have telephone poles and wires in the way, they are really distracting. I feel really uneasy looking at the cut off guy. Would have been better with his arms showing.

Same comments as everyone else - The vertical pole is distracting in the shot. If you were able to crop it out would make for a better and interesting image. Taking the picture vertical and getting the frisbee and person catching it would really give you a cool picture.
Colors are good in the shot and the frisbee gives that feeling of flight and motion.

The electric pole in the middle of the shot is very distracting.

Fits the challenge well, but that pole is very distracting. Still it gives a nice sense of floating and action as well.

Good idea for the challenge....just not great composition. The power pole/lines are a distraction.

This has good potential (great colors and use of sunlight) but that pole is really distracting and I think maybe a little more of the person's body, or maybe even his arms in the air pulling him more into the shot, would have been better. I like the angle you shot from though, getting the underbelly of the frisbee that way.

Had to stop and see what was in flight, the pole distracted me.
